Action Film: The Mechanic (SPOILER)
The movie "The Mechanic" came out in 2011, a pretty recent film. As traditional action movie there are some unbelievable actions in here. The protagonist in this movie is a hit man name Arthur Bishop. Called himself mechanic instead. He is not just ordinary hit man, but the top one in the organization he is working for. The main conflict begin when he was ordered to kill his contact/ friend who said to betray the organization. So as professional killer, Arthur didn't let his feeling go in the way and kill his teacher. At this point a new character come into the scene, the son of his teacher name Steve Mckenna. Steve don't have a job and after his father died, he give up his life. Arthur push by his personal guilt force himself to help Steve. He train Steve to become a mechanic a professional hit man. During a mission he learned that he was used to kill his friend. At around the same time Steve found a pistol from Arthur's hideout that belong to his father. Leaving his some suspection to his father's death. Arthur and Bishop both fight into the headquarter and kill Dean Sanderson the one who used Arthur. The movie might just ended here, but the second betrayal is coming up. Steve decided to revenge for his father and attempt to kill Arthur. However Arthur noticed this and kill Steve afterward in an explosion. Yes, Arthur kill both the father and the son. I think he might just let Steve go after he think he kill him (Arthur).
